College of Engineering Events
Welcome Week
Each August, the College of Engineering hosts Welcome Week to usher new students into Shocker Nation! Our Welcome Week events are designed to introduce you to the college, help you meet fellow students, faculty and staff, and connect you with resources to support you in a successful transition to WSU.
Research Symposium
Each Fall, the College of Engineering hosts the annual Engineering Research Symposium. The poster competition is a great opportunity for students to showcase their research projects, develop their presentation skills and compete for one of three certificates with cash prizes.
Engineers Week
Engineers Week, which occurs annually during a week in February, was founded in 1951 by the National Society of Professional Engineers to celebrate and promote the engineering profession. Each year, the College of Engineering celebrates the holiday with numerous activities and events!
Engineering Open House
The College of Engineering hosts two Engineering Open Houses each year. The Fall EOH is a smaller event that occurs in December, while the Spring EOH is a large event in May. At both events, senior students present prototype solutions to address identified needs. The Spring EOH incorporates a celebration of the accomplishments of our students and faculty, including an Awards Ceremony following the EOH.
Koch Innovation Challenge
The Koch Innovation Challenge, sponsored by Koch Industries, is an annual competition that supports the College of Engineering in fostering a culture of creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship and teamwork among students. One portion of the Challenge, the Grand Champion Competition, occurs during the EOH in May.
